Athletics

Challenging, engaging, and developmentally appropriate, the School’s athletic program offers competitive and noncompetitive options for US students and is anchored by our core values and enduring skills.

EARLY CHILDHOOD ATHLETICS
While Preschool and Prekindergarten students do not attend formal physical education classes, gross motor activities are an integral part of every school day. Students are introduced to physical education classes in Kindergarten, attending Sports class twice per week, where they learn the fundamentals of sport-specific activities, gameplay, and sportsmanship.

LOWER SCHOOL ATHLETICS
Lower School students are introduced to more sport-specific games as they develop confidence, quick thinking, spatial awareness, and an understanding of competition. These First through Fourth Graders attend Sports class three times per week, where the development of locomotor skills is emphasized, culminating in the end-of-year President’s Fitness Challenge.
